HTC Droid DNA User Manual & Quick Start Guide for Verizon Wireless

Is there any relation between Deoxyribonucleic acid with this HTC Droid DNA? What is the reason of HTC named this new Smartphone with the DNA “term”? Can you answer it?

HTC Droid DNA Overview

OK, forget about the name. It’s not important though. Instead, let discuss about the specs of this phone. As long as I read, the Droid DNA design uses 5.0 inches Super LCD3 capacitive touchscreen coated and protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 2 display. The colors has 16M and uses HD 1080 x 1920 pixels resolution (which is about 441 ppi pixel density; the best of the best). The weight of the phone is about 141.7 gram or approximately about 4.97 ounces.

Along with Version Carrier, you can get the 4G LTE network that can provide data connectivity up to 50Mbps (Upload) and 100Mbps (Download) along with 3G HSPA, EVDO REv.A up to 3.1Mbps (depend on the type of mobile carrier).

I must say that this time the User Guide / Manual and Quick Start Guide of HTC Droid DNA come in a good packages. Especially the QSG which consists some quick tutorial for the device. It’s even has a better explanation on the matter of Phone Layout Overview (Key-Parts) than the User Guide had. On QSG, the front and rear view are well-elaborate with full colors touching; on the contrary, on UG it’s only shown the front view in black-white color.

There is an upgrade plan to Jelly Bean OS 4.2 (level 2, official OTA support). For the main hardware. This HTC Droid DNA is powered with quad-core 1.5 GHz Krait processor and for the chipset plus GPU it uses Qualcomm MDM615m/APQ8064 with Adreno 320.
